OK. This is a freaking riot. I was obsesssssssed with valley girls. In fact, I grew up as far away from the valley as you could get (even though I lived there as an adult!) (NOT a humblebrag). I was a dipshit of a young teen living on the right on the border of NY state and French-Canada (Quebec), and I adopted what I thought, assumed, saw on TV as the valley girl dialect. I practiced, perfected, it became part of my speaking trait, whether I later in life liked it or not. TO THIS DAY I still get razzed for my "valley girl" lilt! And I'm not even legit!
